This is the first book I've read by the author, and the first in a humorous mystery series that takes place in Big Clock, Minnesota. The main character, Caitlyn Rocket, works part-time for the local newspaper.
She starts to investigate a minor crime--the break-in of a supply closet at a local business--that the police are not doing anything about because the business owner claimed it was a misunderstanding. When Caitlyn discovers that two women quit their jobs at the company the day after the break-in, and that neither have been heard from since, she suspects that they have been murdered.
I thought the book started out a little slow, and seemed to have too many unrelated activities happening. It got a little better as it went on. The Caitlyn character comes across as a little immature, and some of the things she ends up doing are a little unbelievable, and this continues throughout the book.
I didn't love this book, although I didn't hate it either. I thought it was okay, but moved a little too slowly in the beginning.
This fulfills a requirement in the A to Z Reading Challenge Author--W and Title--U
